Both! Hard to pick on over the other!  I like steering with the rear end and throttle sometimes!

I am more of a option #2 myself and i have done alot of it in my days  But around here we don't have many open areas anymore and theres alot of houses and traffic. I have also gottin into the corners too and i'm really amazed how good a stock suspension on AAR CUDA handle curves.

Your car does handle great in the curves. It was fun driving it from Loudnville car show, route 3 is kind of like a road course in that are anyway.

My car was purchased new by a High School buddy who ordered the 340 for handling over the big block. I have a BMW M5 which I love to drive on curvy roads but the problem with that car is once you "run out of talent" you're going way too fast to survive it. With the 'Cuda you have a much slower limit - and the car is very predictable and easy to control at the limit. Now that it's finished and I'm driving it a lot I'm starting to enjoy it more than the M5 on curves. The M5 does 0-60 in 4.8 seconds so that's my favorite car for #2, straight line accel! Kind of bass ackwards isn't it?

I did learn a valuable lesson this summer,don't let off in a corner when the turbo is spooled up :roflsmiley:the guy in the porsche that was trying to keep up with me as we were getting on the Taconic thruway got an eyefull as the R/T spun right around and into the grass.

Funny you mention that.  I was reading up on Porsche 911s and I guess they have that same problem as your R/T, stated just as you mentioned, don't let off the gas midway through a curve or else you'll get a ride you won't forget! 

sadil340,  When you mention M5 it reminds me when in the late 80's when I had my 5th Ave with the little 318 with the Weiand intake/Holley combo I used to see every so often an old M5 and we used to go at it on the curve roads by the Charles River.  Was cool 2 fast sedans going at.  I puit those full length add a leaf deals on my car and it made a big difference in the curves.

 A couple of weeks ago I was working the Challenger on rural highway 41, nothing too sketchy, just having some fun, then over the next rise, sirens, lights, and a road closed marker ahead.

 Another driver in his 58 Mercedes, lost control and went down a 150 ft. embankment. Come to find out he didn't survive.

  Passing by I wondered what might have went wrong to cause this terrible crash, maybe too much brake, excessive throttle, another car in the road, who knows. Oddly enough a couple miles later, a guy in a Toyota something or an other, flies bye me (drifting) at what must have been 80mph. There you go, running on the edge, sooner or later.....

 It was a bit disturbing to tell ya the truth. There are alot of variables out there and one never knows when they might all add up.
